We were really excited to stay here, especially by how the pictures looked. On a positive note, the sunset there is amazing. Unfortunately there were several things we couldn't get past, and had to check out early. Although you could tell the place was cleaned, there were many things, still untouched. Dust covered fans, old rugs/bath mats, many items left in refrigerator (actually seems that someone lives there), ants on the counter. My husband has allergies and the musty smell, that seemed to be masked by fresheners and candles, was too much. The other thing we found odd were the notes left in several places, with rules, what to do/not to do. It's the way they are written that makes you feel like you're walking on eggshells. "USE COASTERS ON WOOD SURFACES-THATS WHAT THEY ARE THERE FOR! " "DO NOT BLOW OUT PILOT IN FIREPLACE OR IT WILL COST YOU $165" Many more, and it's ok to have rules, just the way they are written does not feel very welcoming. Told the owner after the first night about the smell and husbands allergies, as well as the leaky freestanding AC in master. After the 2nd night tried to explain we didn't know if we could stay, and mentioned the other issues in hopes that we could be refunded in partial only for the nights we weren't staying.(we stayed 3, and left for the last 2). She said she would refund the cleaning fee if we took the sheets off, empty trash, put towels away, wipe down everything with clorox wipes and the list goes on. We never cooked, barely stayed there, but were respectful and did it all. Disappointed in this experience, and how much we paid. Anyway, live and learn. Have had luck with VRBO in the past and in this case, what you see, isn't always what you get!
